The Caw: Ravens Yearbook Photos
Who doesn't love looking back at old yearbooks? I scoured the web and phoned high schools to deliver the Ravens - before they were Ravens.

I'm guessing the "party animal" reference is sarcastic. Didn't know Joe had such a sweet tooth or was such a gym rat. Oh and Flacco also met his future wife, Dana Grady, in high school. So who's this Courtney and Amanda?!

Is it me, or is this soooo New Jersey? If only Joe were wearing what looks to be the mink coat, or better yet the cheetah print. Nope, Joe needs only a white polo and jeans to be on homecoming court. Also nice to see that he hasn't changed his hands-behind-the-back pose.

Flacco was raking in awards well before his Super Bowl MVP. He took home senior superlatives for "Most Athletic," "A Star is Born," and "Tallest." Who needs a Lombardi Trophy when you've got those honors?

An all-around athlete, Flacco played football, basketball and baseball at Audubon. But is that really an "intimidating" Flacco basketball flex? Flacco was a very good baseball player, and even expressed a desire to play in college.

Totally digging the hair. And I think I have the same jacket.

At least they got his first name right.

Bow tie is a classic. Hair... even better.

Need I say more?

Oher looks like a big softie. I can totally see Leigh Anne Tuohy pinching those cheeks. I like his premonition with the quote, but who is Minute Maid Moffia?

Pitta is a junior? Well not a junior, but the II? I've also got questions about that hair gel. His Ravens teammates say Pitta is among the most finicky about his hair.

Pitta was apparently a high school heartthrob. His homecoming court partner looks pretty stoked to be escorted by the football star.

It's only fitting that Pitta was pictured with a Vince Lombardi quote in his yearbook. And wow, he really filled out. He looks even thinner than high school Flacco.

Pitta was the Moorpark High School "Athlete of the Year," after being a staring member of the track, basketball and football teams.

Has Suggs changed at all? This seriously looks like it was taken yesterday.

How many times did Suggs get caught in the hallway without this?

Of course Suggs is mean mugging.

Now that is one fly suit.

I feel bad for the other kids. Suggs was massive. In 1999, he set the Arizona Class 5A record for rushing yards in a single game with 367.

Smith was obviously excited about the facial hair he was sprouting. Also take notice of the start of his dreads. Those wouldn't be cut until about six years later. A Stafford High School administrator told me he was homecoming king. With that stubble and Smith's charm, I'm not the least bit surprised.

Webb is one of the Ravens' smallest players, and was even tinier in high school. I love the tough guy look in the basketball jersey, balanced by the innocence in his senior picture. Webb has really grown his hair out since high school.

Yanda looks like a good ole farm boy in his picture (which is what he is). He still has the same haircut, but a whole lot more facial hair.

Lewis looks like a little darling. You can still see the passion in those eyes though.
